The Downtown Development Authority has finalized the
events for the first July 4th celebration Fennville has seen
in years.
"4th of Fennville" has a unique theme to it's events. The
DDA offered local groups to run booths where that group
will be able to make the money for there organization. Many
groups, such as the High School Football team, Cheerleaders, Boy and Girl Scouts have
offered to run booths during the day of events.
The day will begin at 8:30am with a 5K run/walk sponsored by the Fennville Football
teams. All proceeds will benefit the football program. Forms can be picked up at City Hall

Fennville community.
